Structured gel manicures are not your average gel mani. They’re a longer-lasting, healthier alternative designed to add strength and structure to your natural nails. In addition to detailed dry cuticle work - builder gel or hard gel is used to create a smooth, protective layer that helps prevent breakage and supports natural nail growth. Perfect for anyone who wants beautiful, resilient nails with a polished, clean look.

 FAQs

  • Yes! While I do prefer working on natural nails - I can do natural sculpted extensions or Apres/SofGel soft gel extensions. Please add this service on in the booking page. Also, please note that I have limited pre sculpted nail shapes so let me know what shape you are looking for before your appointment.

  • Yes! Although due to the nature of polish - I cannot guarantee their wear.

  • Yes!! This is a collaboration! Please send me any inspo 2-3 days before your appointment so I can make sure I have the correct supplies and so that I can practice if need be.

  • Take a look at my instagram below! I love abstract, glitters, encapsulations, jewels, tortoise shell, marbling, auras. But I am open to try new things. While I have a background in art and design, character art is not my specialty (and can be very time consuming) so I will not be offering that at this time.

  • Please read all policies on the booking page.
